IT Support and Academic Administrator

About Me

Hello, I'm Gautam Kansagra
I have studied Diploma in Electronics and Communication in 1991 from India. After a very long time again I became a student. Now, I am a student of Associate in Applied Science in Software Development at College of Dupage, Illinois. I have a more than 20 years' work experience as an IT Support and Academic Administrator, 7 years' experience as a Technical Support and Training and 1.5 years' experience as a Quality Control and Production Supervisor. All the experience which I have mentioned here has been gained when I was in India.

I am always eager to learn more to upgrade myself and also want to learn more regarding my interest, my work, my life, and surrounding matters. I believe in hardworking, sincerity, dedication and honesty to my work. I never walk out from my responsibilities. I always try to give more than what I receive. I believe that team cooperation and coordination are the most powerful matters for any successful project.
